The headquarters committee of the American army will lead Dunford, who called Moscow the main threat

33
On Wednesday, the US Senate approved General Joseph Dunford as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reports Lenta.ru report Reuters message.



Prior to this, the general commanded the Marine Corps. The approval of his candidacy occurred a few days before the start of the parliamentary recess.

It is expected that the current head of the committee, Martin Dempsey, will fully hand over the files to his successor by September.

Earlier, speaking to members of the Senate, the general called the Russian Federation "the main threat to US security." He noted then that "Russia has a sufficient nuclear arsenal to threaten the sovereignty of the American allies."

In addition, Dunford joined the camp of those who consider it necessary to supply Kiev with lethal weapons.

    Is there a passing grade now? The louder you yap at an elephant i.e. to Russia, the more honor and respect ?!
    But seriously, the advancement by the "war party" of its talking heads into all sorts of power structures is an unhealthy tendency.

      That’s how it works the last 15-20 years. Russophobia is one of the main requirements for the political structures of the EU, NATO and the USA.
      This is actually even good.
      It’s not necessary to be afraid of those who yap, but those who smile sweetly behind the packs of yunders - after all, they are the ones who hold the leashes of these dogs.
      I would have been far more wary of the peace-loving NATO general offering cooperation, than the warrior with the post-traumatic syndrome, which Russian tanks are seen everywhere. In the end - to rattle with a weapon, this is quite normal for warriors. But diplomacy and tact are shown by either a spy or a killer.

      I totally agree. Here the principle works: The more you hate Russia, and louder you declare it. The greater the position and respect ... Sad ...

    This would shake not only Dunford, but the whole headquarters committee. As in the cartoon about the Gava kitten, you need to be afraid together, it's not so scary. smile

    The American "elite" is completely infected with Russophobia (read Russian fear) and, thank God, there are smart people who know the real essence of their state, such as: a legless veteran Marine who saluted our paratroopers in Moscow on the day of the Airborne Forces, or a soldier who took off with this flag. Honor and praise to them who are not afraid.

        There is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing innocent people.
        You cannot find a flag of size capable of covering up shame for innocently killed people.

    In fact, this was to be expected. Well, who else can currently make their way to the top? Who but a rabid "hawk" if both the president of the states and the chief senator McCain are playing the same tune. And the rest do not really mind: to whom the war, and to whom the mother is dear, money does not smell. And the entire policy of the states is based precisely on making money in ANY WAYS, and war is just one of them.
    The logical result.

    It’s not what the Amerovacs say,
    the fact is that our leaders must understand that behind Russophobia there are economic interests,
    stop fueling the economy of enemies and protect your economy.

    ... I wonder if the "preoccupied" scared by the main threat "will give up their seats before the elections? The main thing is to try to make a smart litso, sadly frightened eyes and say that you know where the main threat and BINGO come from! They already don’t care about ISIS, they now, at the words of Russia, Moscow and Putin, urinate, cough, farts and suffer from sleeplessness-kulef, you can bomb tama wherever there is a terrorist attack, but to the "main threat" try sunsya and shovel so quickly that you will not have time to dig in ... so you have to fumble out of your cesspool pit, stuffing your pockets and coming up with something even more terrible to say, you look even more ... light red ... by the way, they now have boy scouts pi "they will educate, so now democracy and pi" reddening synonyms ... so cool: they don't need women in the army now, lope now "victims of circumstances" will be left without work ...
    Pysy: "victim of circumstances" is now so in the USA prostitutes are called OFFICIALLY! So as not to offend their bright and tender insides, since they have no soul ...

    ... the general called the Russian Federation "the main threat to US security"


    It seems that it is simply that the mere presence of Russia (or some other country) nuclear weapons is a threat to the United States.
    And the fact that the USA also has nuclear weapons in a much larger volume (not counting its NATO allies) is not a threat to Russia and the rest of the world - because the Americans are the most harmless and peaceful people in the world.
    The United States is good for everyone!
    To advance their democracy for the buggers USA built around the world more 1000 military bases; their share of military spending is 34,1% of the world,
    Russia has only 9 foreign bases; the share of military spending is 4.8%. from the world.
    So who is the aggressor?
    Who is the "main threat to the security of the world"?
